Ki is the keeper from our Caesar x Mera litter. He is a happy chap, with a calm and easy going nature who loves to learn new tricks with a very waggy tail. Ki has started his show career with several Best Baby Puppy in Group awards and some lovely results at speciality level.

Oct 2022 - RR Club (Sydney) - Judge Mrs Anna Lane - Ki was 1st place in Minor Puppy Dog and was Best Opposite Minor Puppy in Show
December 2022 Ki started in Scent Work. He loves it and with continued training he will hopefully go on to competing in Scent Work trials
Ki gained his Australian Championship title with a very nice Best of Breed win on 2 June 2023. He has several large wins, including a Runner Up Best in Group.

13 Jan 2024 - Ki competed in his first Trick Dog Trial and gained his first pass towards his Trick Dog Starters title. He was a very happy boy and wagged his tail non-stop while doing his tricks.
27 April 2024 - Ki competed in his first Scent Works Trial and gained passes in Novice Exteriors and Novice Interiors.
26 May 2024 - Ki gained passes in Novice Interiors (with a 3rd place from 55 entries) and Novice Vehicles.
23 June 2024 - Ki gained a pass in Novice Vehicles. He now only needs a Novice container pass for his title.
1, 2, 3 July 2024 - Ki competed in the first SprintDog trials held in Australia and gained passes in each trial with enough points for his Novice SprintDog title. He is the first Rhodesian Ridgeback in Australia with a SprintDog title.
November - Ki qualified in SprintDog and now has enough points (250) for the next title, the SPRD, making him the first RR in Australia with this title.
Also, in November he gained two more Novice Scent work passes (Novice Exteriors and Containers) to give him his Novice Scent Works title (SWN). He also gained his first Advance pass in Advance Interiors. We had another go at Trick Dog Starters, but unfortunately his mum was in season and his boy brain meant he forgot how to jump. He did the other 5 tricks really well though.
